Changes at a glance
✓ From 1 Aug 2017, eBay sellers living in the UK will contract with eBay (UK) Limited instead of eBay Europe S.à r.l.
✓ The change affects a number of our agreements, including our User Agreement, User Privacy Notice and Billing Agreements.
✓ We currently charge UK VAT of 20% on seller fees for non-business sellers. This won’t change and you won’t see any changes in your overall fees.
✓ Beginning 1 Aug 2017 we’ll start adding UK VAT at the standard rate of 20% on fees billed to business sellers.
✓ Our net fees aren’t affected by this change. We’re not changing the services we provide, and you won’t need to update any of your listings.
✓ For example, if you’re a business seller billed on the 15th of the month, your invoice dated 15 Aug 2017 will show VAT on all your fees. However, you’ll also see a credit for any VAT applied to your fees between 16 July and 31 July.
